Sonos Ace have a weight of 312g, these weigh below 320g, which we consider as the highest average a headphone should weigh for comfort during long use. We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. 1More SonoFlow, at 250g
weigh less than the Sonos Ace by -62g
Detachable cables are cables that have connectors on both ends.
One end goes into your headphone earpieces, while the other end is inserted into a source device. Some new headphones, and not just the expensive ones, are coming with detachable cables, Sonos Ace are one of those. With a detachable cable, 1More SonoFlow too can use alternative cables and if the cable is pulled, it will pop out instead of breaking.
Twisted headphone cables can be a great source of annoyance and inconvenience, Sonos Ace's cable is designed to minimize tangling. Constant twisting of the cables can also lead to bends in the copper wires, affecting sound quality, or
completely damaging your headphones. 1More SonoFlow too have a cable designed to help prevent tangles.
By sweat resistance we mean that the wireless earbuds are protected in the presence of low-pressure water jets at any angle, this is determined by the IP Rating of the earbuds. Based on the ingress protection rating of the Sonos Ace they do have sweat resistance
1More SonoFlow's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits,
A long cable ensures more freedom of movement, but remember that every cable based on the conducting material used has a certain amount of parasitic resistance, inductance, and capacitance. How much depends on the length and construction.
Sonos Ace comes with a 1.2meters cable. 1More SonoFlow comes with a 1.2meters cable. Almost any cable should be fine in sound quality If you're looking at lengths up to 2 - 3 meters.
Over-ear headphones have larger earpads that fit around your entire ear Sonos Ace have a comfortable full-size form with earcups that fully enclose your ears. This design is loved for its increased sound isolation and the fact that it won't leak sound to your neighbors. 1More SonoFlow with this design offer potential for maximum bass and loudness levels.
Sonos Ace have stereo speakers, what this means is that Sonos Ace's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. The 1More SonoFlow also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out.
In simple terms, it's like taking +1 outside (noise from your surrounding) and adding -1 inside (counter sound within the device) to make 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
Sonos Ace allow you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the volume to overcome background noise. 1More SonoFlow too have active noise cancellation making both devices ideal for plane rides and morning commutes.
Each may work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting, mode, or noise cancellation type that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time. Passive Noise Cancellation uses well-designed ear cups to seal out environment noise. This is used for both in-ear earphones and over-ear headphones where the headphone itself will keep surrounding noise out.
The Sonos Ace sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out. Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which means that also the 1More SonoFlow isolates you from ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out. Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on the way through.
Sonos Ace's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass. 1More SonoFlow's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal bass
High frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it. Sonos Ace's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
1More SonoFlow's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Sonos Ace driver unit is 40mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass. 1More SonoFlow driver unit is 40mm in diameter,
making both 1More SonoFlow, and Sonos Ace similar in how loud their sound gets
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty reproducing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound. If your headphones play wirelessly, cancel ambient noise, or enhance your listening experience with active features, their battery life will reduce over time. The device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Sonos Ace's battery life is 30 hours
1More SonoFlow's battery life is 70 hours. Each time you recharge your headphones, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first.
But over a few years, you may find that your device, no longer plays for long like it used to. It takes 2 hours to fully charge the Sonos Ace's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the headphones for the first time or when they have been unused for extended periods.
1More SonoFlow takes 1.3 hours to fully charge the battery
Sonos Ace have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery. The battery indicator lights show the charging status of your headphones. 1More SonoFlow too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to determine the charging state of your headphones, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. Sonos Ace's battery power is 1,060mAh, more battery power can be an indication of longer battery life. 1More SonoFlow's battery power is 720mAh.
A rechargeable battery is a type of electrical battery that can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use. Sonos Ace's battery can be recharged and used over again. The 1More SonoFlow too have a rechargeable battery.
Sonos Ace can be used wirelessly, wireless devices allow you more freedom of movement not limited by a cable. The 1More SonoFlow also can be used wirelessly

1More SonoFlow has a Bluetooth version of v5.
Newer versions provide faster data transfers. Sonos Ace support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power on a single cable. The USB-C plug is now part and parcel of most current laptops, phones, and tablets, it features reversible plug orientation and cable direction.
1More SonoFlow too have USB TYPE-C
Sonos Ace support APTX, a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps. Sonos Ace support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio.
It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate. The 1More SonoFlow support AAC as well.
Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate. Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances. The Sonos Ace can connect at a 20meters distance via Bluetooth or infrared to another device.
The 1More SonoFlow can connect at a 10meters distance via Bluetooth
Being an industry standard audio plug, a standard 3.5mm male connector is suitable for use with all MP3 players and computer sound cards. This means that it is commonly used in stereo headphones to your phone or connecting your phone to an external amplifier, sound bars, your car radio, etc. Sonos Ace has this connector giving it a wider range of connectivity with most of the sound devices out there.
All plugs have at least a tip and sleeve with the number of rings that stand as a differentiating factor. 1More SonoFlow too have this kind of connector
A removable microphone can be easily disconnected from the headset when not needed. Sonos Ace support this kind of microphone, you can use a removable microphone as a normal microphone as well.
Sonos Ace have only 8 microphones, more microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise. The 1More SonoFlow microphones are only 5. Sonos Ace use a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are designed to filter out background noise from the desired sound.
Especially useful in noisy environments. The 1More SonoFlow too use a noise-canceling type of microphone. Sonos Ace support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard.
It’s useful when you want to listen to music but also be aware of what’s happening around you, for example when you’re having a jog but would still want to be able to hear traffic. The 1More SonoFlow support ambient sound mode as well allowing you to hear the ambient sound even while wearing them. Sonos Ace support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the device can detect when they are removed from your ears so that the music is paused, saving battery life and improving your listening experience while at it.
Sonos Ace support multipoint, which allows you to link to more Bluetooth devices and switch between them. For example, you can easily switch calls from one device to another without having to manually disconnect and reconnect. The 1More SonoFlow support multipoint count.
Bluetooth multipoint would come in handy because you can be on one call without missing notifications coming from another device. There is a control panel on the Sonos Ace body, so you can easily access the volume control or remote without having to interact with a cable or another device it's connected to. The 1More SonoFlow too have a control panel on them.
